Hello All!

I'd like to be able to open to the public my jamnntpd server. However, being
security minded, I can't in good conscience open my users to plain text
passwords being transferred across the network.

Before I run down the rabbit hole of hacking together at least a DIGEST-MD5 --
something that protects user passwords from going in the clear;  I wanted to
see if anyone else has started or in the midst of working on the same?

Thanks,
Scott
